Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFGiven:
Scores in speaking, listening, writing, and interview are 9, 8, 6, and 7 respectively.
Weights for speaking, listening, writing, and interviewing are 4, 3, 3, and 4 respectively.
Concept Used:
Weighted Average = [Sum of (score × Weight)] / (Sum of Weights)
Calculation:
Weighted Average = [(9 × 4) + (8 × 3) + (6 × 3) + (7 × 4)] / (4 + 3 + 3 + 4)
⇒ Weighted Average = (36 + 24 + 18 + 28) / 14
⇒ Weighted Average = 7.57
∴ The weighted average score of Arun is 7.57.
